26/06/09Newsflash:
Hi guys, another busy week, couldn't find the time to update the website. Had to work overtime, catching Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen IMAX in between. I was really afraid that the flick would suck, after reading the negative reviews, but guess what, I really liked it! Got home last night, smile on my kisser and Transformers theme in my head... until I heard the news that Michael Jackson passed away. I still can't believe it. The King of Pop is dead, no more moonwalk, his music will last forever though. Rest in peace, Michael.
Here's the last update of the week, let's bring you up to speed on the latest movie news;Hilary Swank, Richard Gere, Ewan McGregor and Virginia Madsen star in the biopic Amelia Earhart, based on that chick you've also seen in Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian.

26/06/09Zack Snyder talks 300 sequel:Watchmen director Zack Snyder talks about a potential sequel to 300. Creator Frank Miller is writing and drawing the story, which will be adapted by Snyder;
"I know for a fact that Frank Miller is writing right now. He's drawing away and seems to be knee-deep in it. I think he's going to head back to Greece again and do another reconnaissance.
I think we would use the same technology... I don't want it to look too Star Wars-ian... Just from what Miller told me, it would be bigger as far as landscape and terrain. We're going to see Athens and the Aegean and other places. There would be an opportunity for bigger visions, though I'd hope for the same aesthetic. The tech we used for 300 was not a revolution. It's basically what the weatherman has. Look, instead of Accuweather it's Sparta... It's going to be the same way, but on crazier steroids."
